THEMATIC CATALOGUE


SHUSHI INTER-NATIONAL COMMITTEE: Established on December 20, 1917 at the joint session of the members of the Inter-Party Bureau and the representatives of the Moslem National Committee. The Committee comprised of 6 Moslems, 6 Armenians and was chaired by K. Kobiyev, a neutral person who was the Arbitrator of Shushi. The objective of the Committee was to protect the common interests of the two nations and regulate the inter-national relations in the region.

SOVIET ARMY: In view of the refusal of AzSSR from the "disputable" territories (Declaration of the Azerbaijani Revolutionary Committee of December 3, 1920), ās well as the numerous appeals of the people of Nagorno Karabagh, the Soviet Army proclaimed Nagorno Karabagh as the integral part of Armenia June 12, 1921.

SOVIET RUSSIA which had occupied MK in the summer of 1920 in the course of establishment of the Soviet power in the region, following the League of Nations, did not acknowledge Nagorno Karabagh as part of Soviet Azerbaijan.

STATUS QUO FOR NKR implies that NKR should continue to be a subject of the national-state system of a Soviet state, a status which MKAO, the predecessor of NKR possessed.

SOVEREIGNIZATION OF AzSSR (AzR) IN THE COURSE OF DISSOLUTION OF THE USSR took place in 1991 when AzR refused to become the legal successor of AzSSR and the state independence of AzR of 1918-1920 was rehabilitated.

SHUSHI (KARABAGH) REGIMENT: The regiment was formed in Tiflis by the efforts of the Armenians of Karabagh and Zangezur during the period from the year-end of 1917 and the beginning of 1918 in order to defend the region. Michael Melik-Adamian, a colonel of the Russian Army, was designated as the commander of the regiment. The regiment passed a difficult and long way before it reached Goris in autumn of 1918. Here some of the arms were handed over to the detachment of Andranik dislocated in Goris. After major losses the regiment moved past Zabukh and on December 13, 1918 entered into Shushi.
